Residents of Lagos State have been urged not to panic as they welcome
the rainy season, with the government assuring that any flash flood
recorded during any rainfall would be temporary, as it had done
everything needed to ensure the flood does not wreck havoc in the state
this year.

The government also urged residents residing on low line areas to
relocate when the intensity of the rains become severe, as the state
would not want any resident to lose his or her life or property to flood
during the rains.

Speaking while monitoring the mid rain cleaning programme in Lagos
Island, Mainland and Victoria Island executed by the drainage
maintenance office and emergency flood abatement arms of his Ministry
during weekend’s rainfall, Commissioner for the Environment, Tunji
Bello, said any flood seen would disappear as soon as the rain stopped,
because the ministry had cleaned and dredged primary and secondary
channels across the state ahead of this year’s rainy season.

A pastor, Chidiebere Okafor and his wife Amaka have been
charged before Ikeja Magistrates’ Court, Lagos State, southwest Nigeria,
over an alleged fake deliverance a victim was deceived to pay for.

The pastor and his wife, who are from Anambra State, southeast
Nigeria, are facing trial for allegedly obtaining $13,000 from Patrick
Okoro, under false pretence to cast out evil spirits that prevented him
from becoming a successful businessman in the state.

The couple was arraigned in the court on an eight-count charge of
obtaining under false pretence, unlawful possession of charms, stealing
and false representation as pastors to defraud the victim.

Recounting his ordeal before the court presided by over by Mrs.
Makanju Oshodi, Okoro alleged that the couple defrauded him through a
man simply identified as Emeka who contacted him for a business
transaction.

Okoro, who sells building materials at 2, Aso Rock Street Ago Okota,
Lagos, alleged that Emeka, who is now at large, came to his office to
make an enquiry about the prices of some building materials.

He said that after giving him the cost of the materials, Emeka said
he would need to first consult with his brother who sent him to buy the
materials and promised to come back.

Okoro said that on 11 November, 2011, Emeka and his brother invited
him to a hotel at Satellite Town, Lagos, where he hoped to seal the
business deal but when he got there, instead of negotiating the price
with him, they offered him a drink and promised to call him the next
day.

“On 14 November 2011, Emeka and a man called Ikenna, called me to
meet them somewhere. When I got there, they said they want to transact
business with me but they don’t know me well. They said they have a very
big project but they don’t trust me enough. They said I have to go with
them to a priest to swear an oath before they can trust me, but I told
them that I am Christian and I don’t believe in taking oath.

“Emeka said that he knows a very good pastor that would pray for us.
He said we should go and see the pastor,” he narrated in court.

Okoro said that they took him to the suspect, whom he alleged are fake pastors and did not know that they are a couple.

According to him, when they got to the place, Okafor prayed for them.

Okoro alleged that to deceive him, Okafor first prophesied to Ikenna
that he had $500,000 dollars and N100 million which he planned to use
for the business. But he said for the business to be successful, he
needed N90, 000 to buy anointing oil for deliverance from evil spirits.

When Ikenna brought the money, the pastor told him to bring more money for him to cast out all the demons in him

“By that time, I didn’t know what I was doing again, because the
pastor also asked me to bring $13,000 dollars and N500, 000, which I
did,” he said.

Okoro alleged that on 15 November, 2011, Emeka called him to bring
N500,000, for the deliverance before they can start the business and he
did.

He also alleged that on 28 November, 2011 the pastor called him to
deposit N280,000 in the bank account of a lady whom the pastor borrowed
money from to solve some personal problems, which he also did.

According t him, he later discovered that the woman in question was his wife.

Okoro said he realised that he was duped when he called Ikenna and
told him that he needed his money back but he told him to stop
disturbing him.

He said when he called the pastor, he also told him that he was not in Lagos.

Okoro said that on 25 January, 2012, he wrote a petition to the Lagos
State Commissioner of Police and the police arrested the couple and
investigation on the matter began immediately.

He added that because he has the phone number of Okafor and bank
account number of his wife Amaka, the police could traced and arrested
the couple.

The couple pleaded not guilty to charges and the magistrate granted
them bail in the sum of N900,000 with two sureties in like sum.

The matter has been adjourned till 21 May 2013 for continuation of trial.

A unclad grandmother offered s*x in exchange for not being arrested, according to reports.
A grandmother who was being arrested after a fight in a motel room allegedly offered s*xual favors to the arresting officers.
Police called to a motel to check the welfare of a child found the
girl and her grandmother unclad. According to the police report, the
other boy’s grandmother called police because she was concerned that
Jacqueline Burse was intoxicated while watching the child.

When officers arrived, Jacqueline Burse opened the door unclad and
began screaming obscenities. A fight occurred when police tried to
handcuff Burse. During the scuffle Burse allegedly offered s*xual
favors, asking the officers “You want some of me?” while moving her
legs, according to the local newspaper.
She was handcuffed and dressed in time, but she kept yelling and
cursing at the officers. Burse was booked on suspicion of child neglect
and resisting arrest. She has previous arrests for public intoxication,
assault, prostitution and drugs.

Veteran Nollywood actor, Peter Bunor says he has been abandoned by members of his profession, Nollywood since he was struck with a deadly stroke.

In a recent interview with Vanguard, the
Ogwashi-Uku, Delta State-born actor narrated how since his ordeal, he
is yet to receive a phone call from any of his former colleges not to
talk of assistance.

‘Since this thing happened, there has
been no single actor that called me to ask about my condition. It is a
shame on their part. Would they say they don’t know that I am sick?’, the actor asked.

Bunor started his acting career with
Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) Jos in the 80s before featuring in
the network’s successful series ‘Cock Crow at Dawn’ and then ‘Mirror in the Sun’. At the advent of Nollywood, he took a prominent part in the 1994 blockbuster, ‘Glamour Girls’.

I JUST read Mr. Remi Adekoya’s piece in the Guardian of
the U.K. entitled ‘Goodluck Jonathan’s report card for Nigeria? Must
try harder’ in which he praised President Jonathan for a booming economy
but came down hard on him for failing to help Nigeria’s poor.

When Adekoya says “Infrastructure also remains a problem. Without a
modern road network, doing business in Nigeria will remain prohibitively
expensive and logistically challenging”, he betrays a surface
understanding of recent events in Nigeria.a

For example, before the Jonathan administration if you wanted to
travel from Lagos to Kano you had two choices, you either went by road
or by air. Today, under President Jonathan’s direction, Nigeria’s
railways have been revived and a traveller planning the same journey has
a third alternative.

He can travel from Lagos to Kano by rail at a cost of N1,500 which is
less than $10. It is rather surprising that Mr. Adekoya did not reflect
this major development in his piece especially when you consider that
Nigeria’s rail revival miracle has received praise from some of the
major newspapers and magazines in the West.

Jon Gambrell of the Associated Press had a string of highly
syndicated photos recording this feat. But when you think of it, it is
hard for someone reviewing Nigeria’s progress from the United Kingdom to
have first hand information.

But
for Providence, 6 May, 2013 would have gone down in the history of the
country as one of the bloodiest days of crime. The would-be perpetrators
of the act are now cooling their feet in police net. How were they
apprehended?

Accordinated
attempt to carry out a major robbery operation in Onitsha, Anambra
State was recently foiled by officers and men of the Anambra State
Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS).
Amos Chieku, Ndubuisi Uche, Chibuike Alakwachi, Ugochukwu Igbokwe and
Nonso are five members of the gang currently assisting police
authorities to trace the whereabouts of other members still at large.
A couple of weeks ago, one robbery informant reportedly alerted Uche,
popularly called ‘I Chop’ of a planned movement of a large amount of
money from Onitsha to an undisclosed destination, apparently by a group
of businessmen. The amount involved was such that Uche, 31, alone could
not handle.
He promptly invited some ‘tested’ hands in the act of robbery to join
him in the ‘business.’ Chieku, alias Danga is based in Abuja, but moves
anywhere across the country to perpetrate his crime once he is called
upon.
Chieku, 23, is said to be good with guns. He is also a dependable
driver. Alakwachi, 21, is based in Lagos and is reported to be a former
escapee from prison for similar offence. Nonso is said to be the gang’s
armourer and also good

Got dry skin? There are many things you can do to make it smooth and supple.

In many cases, all it takes is making a few adjustments to your daily skin care routine. Care Strategies for Dry Skin When You Wash

Try these tips for the bath or shower:

Skip long, hot showers. Hot water strips oils from the skin faster
than warm water. Long showers or baths actually dry out your skin. Limit
yourself to a single 5- or 10-minute warm shower or bath a day.
Use a gentle cleanser or shower gel with moisturizer. Instead of harsh
cleansers, go for unscented, soap-free, or mild soap cleansers.
Moisturize while skin is still moist. Pat your skin with a towel after
you shower or wash your face or hands, leaving it damp. Apply a
moisturizer within three to five minutes of washing to lock moisture in.

What to Look for in a Moisturizer

You don't
have to pay a fortune for a good, rich moisturizer. Read the label.
Ingredients that may be helpful for dry skin include:

Ceramides. Ceramides help the skin hold water and soothe dry skin.
Synthetic ceramides may mimic the natural substances in the outermost
layer of skin that help keep moisture in. Dimethicone and glycerin. These draw water to the skin and keep it there. Hyaluronic acid. Like ceramides, hyaluronic acid helps skin hold water. Lanolin, mineral oil, and petroleum jelly (petrolatum). These help skin hold on to water absorbed during bathing.

Be sure to apply sunscreen to areas of your body that are exposed to
the sun during the day. Look for a sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or more
that says "broad spectrum" on the label. 5 Lifestyle Tips for Relieving Dry Skin

These strategies can also help make your skin supple and smooth:

Plug in a humidifier at home to help keep skin hydrated during winter months when indoor air is dry. Wear cotton and other natural fibers. Wool, synthetics, or other fabrics can be scratchy and irritating. Drink plenty of water.
Eat omega-3 foods. Essential fatty acids can help fortify the
skin’s natural oil-retaining barriers. Foods rich in omega-3 include
cold-water fish (salmon, halibut, sardines), flax, walnuts, and
safflower oil. For redness or inflammation, apply a cool
compress or an over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream on the area for a
week. If these don’t provide relief, talk to your doctor.
